Question

Natural method of reproduction in rose plant

Open in App
Solution

One very important thing to note when answering how do roses reproduce would be their flowers. The rose flowers contain both male and female parts used for reproduction. The male part contains pollen which is brought to the female part of the plant, known as the receptacle. The receptacle accepts the pollen and brings it to the ovule for the plant ovulation. Take note, though, that pollen might not be brought to the receptacle by bees as the rose is one of the flowers that don’t attract bees.
The pollen combines with the ovule and enters the egg cell to be fertilized. The fertilized cell then turns into a rose hip which can be found at the flower’s base. Bird’s droppings are often the primary source of nutrition for these little growing plants which is also important for germination. Given the right amount of nutrition, moisture, and sunlight, the seedling will be able to bloom into a full-fledged rose.
